Even if we convince gcc folks to add another function attribute it won't appear in dwarf. So we won't be able to convert it to BTF in pahole. Looking at how we failed to extend address_space() attribute to support existing __rcu and __user annotations I don't have high hopes of achieving annotations via compiler (either gcc or clang). So plan B is to engage with sparse folks and make it emit BTF with __rcu, __user and other annotations.
